Tommie Harris' wife dies
HOUSTON, May 21 (UPI) -- Miguel Tejada had a solo homer and an RBI double Wednesday, helping Houston down Milwaukee 6-4 to end the Brewers' seven-game winning streak.
Houston took a 4-0 lead through three innings and survived a three-run Milwaukee ninth to make a winner out of Wandy Rodriguez.
Rodriguez (5-2) gave up a run on six hits in seven innings and Chris Sampson picked up his second save despite allowing three inherited runners to score in the ninth.
Tejada's homer gave Houston a 2-0 lead in the second and Hunter Pence delivered a two-run triple in the third.
Tejada also doubled home a run in the sixth and then scored on a base hit by Ivan Rodriguez.
It was the first Milwaukee loss since May 10, when the Brewers fell to the Chicago Cubs. Yovani Gallardo (4-2) suffered the setback, giving up six runs on seven hits in five-plus innings.
